Another Lightning Strike! (92 Sq F.1A)

Seems like a lot of lightnings have been showing up lately, so I thought I'd show my 92 Sq. F.1A as well. (I like the early Lightnings before they added chord to the fin and squared it off!) I built it when the kit was new, so it's about [...]

BF110C-4/B AIRFIX 1/72

Airfix 1/72 Harvard II

This is the old Airfix Harvard II (T-6 Texan) kit of years gone by. It's a simple, nice fitting kit which I did OOB, without a lot of hassle. As old as it was, I was still able to use the kit decals. The story of "why" is [...]
